    Dr Andrew Hann, a senior curator of history at English Heritage, said: “Sweet puddings are closely intertwined with British history and it would be a huge shame for them to die out. […] People are not generally making these sort of hot desserts but turning to things like ice-cream, yoghurts or fruit.”

    In an attempt to reignite Britain’s love affair with puddings, English Heritage has introduced two new pudding-inspired ice-cream flavours to its sites.

    So to combat the shift to ice cream their plan is to… make more ice cream?

      I guess “ice” is the secret. You have to beat me dead to eat a hot dessert when I’ve dealt with the 6th heatwave this year. To COOK one? Gosh I haven’t turned the cooker on in this heat yet and I won’t. I’ll keep to salads and cold foods in general
